personnel should be positioned to ensure the safety of the aircraft and
vehicles/persons around it. There shall be a minimum of 3 persons to marshal
an aircraft into parking position: 1 lead marshaller at the front of aircraft and 1
wing walker at each wing tip.
○ EXCEPTION: Automated gate docking systems may be utilized by an airline in place of
wing walkers. Automatic gate docking systems, when employed are installed and
maintained by the associated airline operating from the gate.
 Gate pushbacks: There should be a minimum of 3 ground personnel to conduct
pushback operations from a terminal gate: 1 tow vehicle driver and 1 wing
walker for each aircraft wing.

BEFORE THE APPEAL


 
To provide additional evidence or supporting documents to the Board, the material must be
submitted to the Secretary for review. This review is intended to confirm the material relates only
to the appeal being heard. The submitted materials become the property of the Board and may
be retained as part of the appeal file.

To reschedule an appeal, notify the Secretary of the Board immediately. The reschedule must
be requested no later than 12:00 Noon one working day prior to the date of the scheduled appeal.
Failure to do so will result in the Board upholding the citation. Only one reschedule is allowed.
Witnesses are allowed at the Hearing to provide additional information regarding the violation;
however, failure of witnesses to appear is not a cause for reschedule.

Arriving ten (10) minutes or more after the scheduled appeal time will forfeit the Appeal Hearing,
and result in the violation being upheld.

DURING THE APPEAL

The Board members will be introduced and the Appellant will be introduced to the Board.

The Appellant will state the basis for the appeal; present evidence/witnesses and answer
clarifying questions. The Appellant may have an attorney or other representative participate in
the appeal to present their case or any additional information. The Appellant however must
participate, be present and respond to questions from the Board.

After all questions are answered, the Appellant, witnesses, and representatives will be
dismissed. The Board will rule on the citation either upholding, reducing, or increasing the rating
based on the facts and/or the extenuating circumstances of the case.

AFTER THE APPEAL

When the hearing is concluded, the Appellant and their representative will be excused and asked
to wait outside the Hearing room while the Board reviews the information provided. The
Appellant and their representative will be dismissed after they are no longer needed.

The Board’s decision will be issued in writing no later than five (5) business days from the date
the Board rules on the appeal. The Secretary will record the decision and notify the Appellant
in writing of the ruling.

The decisions of the Appeal Board are final and will automatically be upheld if an appellant fails
to appear before the Board and the appellant was not granted a rescheduled Hearing.
